About PRN at Knollwood
A PRN (pro re nata — “as needed”) RN at Knollwood is a critical part of our care delivery model. You are not a temporary fill — you are a vetted member of our extended nursing team. PRN staff are held to the same clinical and professional standards as our full-time RN staff. A PRN RN must maintain a minimum availability commitment to remain active in our pool.

As a PRN RN, you will provide direct resident care, administer medications, and serve as the clinical lead on your assigned shift.
